Comparative Evaluation of Encapsulation Methods for Endohedral Doping of Single-Wall Carbon Nanotubes
Cristian M. Borja-Peña, Martin Magg, Hussein Slim +10
Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are promising building blocks for nanoelectronic and optoelectronic devices, yet reliable and stable doping, particularly n type, remains chal…
Structures of iron and cobalt bimetallic clusters for optimized chemical vapor deposition growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes
Qingmei Hu, Daniel Hedman, Ya Feng +17
We investigate iron-cobalt (Fe-Co) alloys as a representative high-performance catalyst system for SWCNT growth in a systematic manner by combining chemical vapor deposition (CVD)…
Analysis of Fe and Co binary catalysts in chemical vapor deposition growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes
Qingmei Hu, Ya Feng, Wanyu Dai +17
Metal catalysts play a pivotal role in the growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), with binary metallic catalysts emerging as an efficient SWCNT synthesis strategy. Amon…
Low-Temperature Synthesis of Weakly Confined Carbyne inside Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Bo-Wen Zhang, Xi-Yang Qiu, Yicheng Ma +16
Carbyne, a one-dimensional (1D) carbon allotrope with alternating triple and single bonds, has the highest known mechanical strength but is unstable to bending, limiting synthesis…
The role of the bile salt surfactant sodium deoxycholate in aqueous two-phase separation of single-wall carbon nanotubes revealed by systematic parameter variations
Joeri Defillet, Marina Avramenko, Miles Martinati +4
Aqueous two-phase (ATP) extraction has been demonstrated as a fast, scalable, and effective separation technique to sort single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) according to their di…
Electronic structure of confined carbyne from joint wavelength-dependent resonant Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory investigations
Miles Martinati, Wim Wenseleers, Lei Shi +7
Carbyne, i.e. an infinitely long linear carbon chain (LCC), has been at the focus of a lot of research for quite a while, yet its optical, electronic, and vibrational properties ha…
Ultrasonication-Induced Extraction of Inner Shells from Double-Wall Carbon Nanotubes Characterized via In Situ Spectroscopy after Density Gradient Ultracentrifugation
Maksiem Erkens, Sofie Cambré, Emmanuel Flahaut +3
Even though ultrasonication is considered to be an effective method to disperse carbon nanotubes (CNTs), its devastating effects on the nanotubes are often neglected. Here, even mi…
Assessing the reliability of the Raman peak counting method for the characterization of SWCNT diameter distributions: a cross-characterization with TEM
Alice Castan, Salomé Forel, Frédéric Fossard +6
Resonant Raman spectroscopy is a widely used technique for single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) characterization, in particular in the radial breathing mode (RBM) range which prov…
Well-defined sub-nanometer graphene ribbons synthesized inside carbon nanotubes
Hans Kuzmany, Lei Shi, Miles Martinati +9
Graphene nanoribbons with sub-nanometer widths are extremely interesting for nanoscale electronics and devices as they combine the unusual transport properties of graphene with the…
Electronic band gaps of confined linear carbon chains ranging from polyyne to carbyne
Lei Shi, Philip Rohringer, Marius Wanko +7
Ultra long linear carbon chains of more than 6000 carbon atoms have recently been synthesized within double-walled carbon nanotubes, and they show a promising new route to one--ato…
Luminescence Properties of Individual Empty and Water-filled Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Sofie Cambré, Silvia Santos, Wim Wenseleers +4
The influence of water-filling on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of SWCNTs is studied by ensemble and single-molecule PL spectroscopy. Red-shifted PL and PL excitation spect…
